Placing the generations into a format of historic events began to bring these fugitives from the European wars and catastrophes into focus as real people. Since this story concerns the early foundation of this nation, the author did not choose to go back beyond the immigration from Europe.

It just did not contribute to the integrity of this book. The book is not a genealogy although it uses that structure to build the generations. And it is not simply a history. It is a perspective of history, demonstrated through the genealogy and migrations of one family. The whole is dependent upon each life among the hundreds of those who made this family possible. Make no mistake about it! The loss of a single onejust one!and the people that followed would never have been born! The relations are carefully delineated. Children are named where it is possible. To this extent, it is hoped other lineages may find the book useful. The appendix contains copies from books and papers that might be difficult or impossible to obtain. It is important to realize that as the reader goes backward in time, the numbers of people become fewer. This means that the chances of interrelations increase as the two hundredth year marker of the past is approached. All of us share a kinship in the origin and the destiny of the United States of America!

Now there is nothing left for him but to ride away from the Triple S Ranch in northern Arizona, the nearest thing to a home he has ever known. The solitude he once cherished is haunted by echoes in the valley; memories of those who treated him as a man instead of someone to be despised. Still, he walks alone - until a girl named Whispering Sage and the father he thought deserted him come into his life.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →"Echoes from the Valley" steps back into history to relive the storied past of one of Georgia's most unique cities--Fort Valley, U. S. A. Once the "Peach Capital of the World," Fort Valley was renowned for its peach festivals during the 1920s. During that era, 40 to 50 thousand visitors converged on Fort Valley annually to behold the vast sea of peach blossoms, to witness extravagant parades, and to eat free barbeque. The railroad arrived during the 1850s, establishing Fort Valley as a railroad community and populating the Byron and Powersville whistle stops along its path. Fort Valley proudly boasts of Blue Bird Body Company, the nation's premier bus manufacturer, started when Lawrence Luce built his first school bus in 1927, and Fort Valley State University, founded in 1895. Fort Valley is replete with historic landmarks such as Everett Square, Bliss, Sylvan Dell, and Dope Hill. The book also chronicles the founding of Fort Valley, Byron, Powersville and the creation of Peach County As historical research unfolded, it became increasingly apparent that Fort Valley, during its early days, was not the sleepy, tranquil, uneventful, little hamlet that had been envisioned, but at times was a community where murders, criminal acts, and misdeeds were occurring with appalling frequency. Murders committed during the 1930s and 1940s were so sensational and shockingly gruesome that they remain hot topics of conversation to this day. Covered in-depth, based on police records, is the horrific 1986 slaying of Denise Murray Allison, whose needless murder, the most savage and brutal killing in Peach County history, has never been prosecuted. Her demonic, yet unknown killer walks among the citizens of Fort Valley.
